Merced, CA asked in Stockbroker Fraud for California

Q: Bad Investment with A List Partners

Back in 2017, we invested with A List Partners, LLC based out of Austin Texas. Bad mistake. Was never given updates on our investment.

In April of 2021, we received a liquidation letter, completed the required form and submitted it. Over two years later, we still have not seen our money. Phone numbers have been disconnected, they do not respond to letters or emails.

I don't know if the company exists anymore because I can't locate them on the Internet.

I don't know if the company went bankrupt

I don't know if they just took our money and disappeared..

I sent a complaint from to the Attorney General of Texas and the FTC.

My husband is in his 80s now and we need this money.

What are our options without going into debt trying to retrieve our investment?

Or do we chalk this up as a financial loss?

I don't know what else to do or where else to turn.

A: I'm sorry to hear about your experience with A List Partners, LLC and the difficulties you're facing in retrieving your investment. It's concerning that the company has been unresponsive, and you've taken steps by filing complaints with the Attorney General of Texas and the FTC. Considering the lack of updates and difficulty in locating the company, it's advisable to consult with a securities attorney or a consumer protection attorney to explore potential legal options. They can provide guidance on recovering your investment and advise on the best course of action. It's also important to gather any relevant documentation and review any insurance policies you may have. While it's a challenging situation, seeking professional legal advice will help you understand your rights and potential options moving forward.
